[anacreon]

I have the H2o which I like very much, but need a "spare wheel" and bought an aura 6" as such and to read in public transport, for size and weight. I'm very disappointed with the last because its capacitive layer and less than HD definition make the text fuzzy on a yellowish gridded ground. And when my late HD broke down and I had to read on the aura 6" exclusively for a month until the H2o became available, I fretted (but was thankful I did have a spare wheel), and was first in line at the shop on the first day to get the H2o. So, I'll buy the glo HD, and this time it is a sister in law who is waiting impatiently for my aura 6" which will be her first reader.

BUT, if I had just one reader, I'd take the H2o. I read poetry fairly often, and the extra .8" makes a real difference, especially as it goes more into width than height. It is also better for illustrated books, such as Alice in Wonderland, and the better laid out books. For the run of the mill poorly set-up epub, it probably doesn't make all that much difference, and the glo HD looks good for the money on paper (I still have to get it, end of the week).

FYI, I read exclusively kepubs, with headers and footers.

EDIT: I have fairly small, severely arthritic hands, and I read one handed, even standing in the metro, but when standing, the 6" is more comfortable.
